柠檬酸对酸沉降下高岭石的溶解作用

采用间歇法(batch method)模拟研究酸沉降下的高岭石在柠檬酸溶液中的长期溶解效应。研究表明:柠檬酸能显著促进高岭石Al和Si的释放,且Al、Si的释放能力随柠檬酸浓度的增加而增强;高岭石溶解同步性与柠檬酸浓度有关,随着柠檬酸浓度的提高,其溶解的同步性增强,且反应前期高岭石都表现为Al的优先释放,而在反应后期Al、Si趋于同步释放。柠檬酸对高岭石的溶解速率一般较无机酸高1个数量级左右,且其溶解速率表现出对柠檬酸浓度的饱和性。

柠檬酸对高岭石的溶解作用

采用间歇法(batch method)研究柠檬酸对高岭石溶解的影响。结果表明:低浓度(0.02mmolL-1)柠檬酸可促进高岭石中Ca2+、Mg2+、Na+少量的释放。当柠檬酸浓度分别为1.0mmolL-1和8mmolL-1时,Ca2+,Mg2+,K+,Na+,Si,Al3+阳离子的释放量也相应地增加。释放的Ca2+、Mg2+主要来自高岭石表面的吸附,而Na+、K+则来自高岭石的溶解。

西南山区河流阶梯—深潭系统的生态学作用

山区河流发育的阶梯—深潭系统具有显著的生态学作用。阶梯—深潭系统增大水流阻力和河床抗冲刷力,稳定了河床和岸坡。大卵石堆积成阶梯,细颗粒泥沙在深潭河段的缓流滞流区沉积下来形成淤泥层,形成适宜多种生物的栖息地。选择小江支流———深沟、蒋家沟和小白泥沟,以及四川九寨沟和金沙江进行野外实验、取样分析。结果发现阶梯—深潭系统较发育的深沟和九寨沟底栖动物密度高达552个/m2,生物量高达5.96 g/m2。而邻近的小白泥沟和蒋家沟底栖动物密度仅0.75个/m2,生物量不到0.006 g/m2。考虑河流不同部位底质、水

保安湖—湖湾大型水生植物群落格局的研究

用地质统计学中的半方差和双对数半方差图对保安湖—湖湾(黄风口)的大型水生植物群落格局进行了研究，在不同的尺度上对群落及其主要组成种类的空间异质性进行了定量的描述。结果表明：保安湖黄风口大型水生植物群落的双对数半方差图存在线性区域，群落具有分形特征(自相似性)。在不同的尺度下，群落和各组成种类空间格局具有不同的分形维数值，异质性程度存在差异。但其异质性程度不高，建议进行群落调查时，样方尺度应取520m；单一种群调查时的样方尺度取380m。

Reconsideration of Phylogenetic Relationships of the Subclass Peritrichia (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) Based on Small Subunit Ribosomal RNA Gene Sequences, with the Establishment of a New Subclass Mobilia Kahl, 1933

Based on its characteristic oral apparatus, the ciliate subclass Peritrichia has long been recognized as a monophyletic assemblage composed of the orders Mobilida and Sessilida. Following the application of molecular methods, the monophyly of Peritrichia has recently been questioned. We investigated the phylogenetic relationships of the peritrichous ciliates based on four further complete small subunit ribosomal RNA sequences of mobilids, namely Urceolaria urechi, Trichodina meretricis, Trichodina sinonovaculae, and Trichodina ruditapicis. In all phylogenetic trees, the mobilids never clustered with the sessilids, but instead formed a monophyletic assemblage related to the peniculines. By contrast, the sessilids formed a sister clade with the hymenostomes at a terminal position within the Oligohymenophorea. We therefore formally separate the mobilids from the sessilids (Peritrichia sensu stricto) and establish a new subclass, Mobilia Kahl, 1933, which contains the order Mobilida Kahl, 1933. We argue that the oral apparatus in the mobilians and sessilid peritrichs is a homoplasy, probably due to convergent evolution driven by their similar life-styles and feeding strategies. Morphologically, the mobilians are distinguished from all other oligohymenophoreans by the presence of the adhesive disc, this character being a synapomorphy for the Mobilia.

Gastropods on submersed macrophytes in Yangtze lakes: Community characteristics and empirical modelling

Epiphytic gastropods in Yangtze lakes have suffered from large-scale declines of submersed macrophytes during past decades. To better understand what controls gastropod community, monthly investigations were carried out in four Yangtze lakes during December, 2001-March, 2003. Composed of 23 species belonging to Pulmonata and Prosobranchia, the community is characterized by the constitution of small individuals. The average density and biomass were 417 +/- 160 ind/m(2) and 18.05 +/- 7.43 g/m(2), with maxima a-round August. Submersed macrophyte biomass is shown to be the key factor affecting species number, density, and biomass of gastropods. Accordingly, a series of annual and seasonal models yielding high predictive powers were generated. Preference analyses demonstrated that pulmonates and prosobranchs with different respiratory organs prefer different macrophyte functional groups.

Rickettsia-like organism infection in a freshwater cultured fish Ophiocephalus argus C. in China

From 2001 to 2002, a new and emergent infectious disease of Ophiocephalus argus occurred in a fishery in Hubei Province, China, with an incidence of 60% similar to 70% and a mortality as high as 100 %. The diseased fish showed an enlarged abdomen, the millet-like nodules in internal organs, and the swollen kidney which was composed of 5 similar to 10 sarcoma-like bodies in cream or gray-white colour or ulcerated into beandregs-like substance. Light microscopic observation revealed the basophilic or acidphilic inclusions in cytoplasm of the cells and the granulomas, a diffusive chronic inflammation in internal organs. Further analysis under an electron microscope indicated that the intracytoplasmic inclusions were rickettsia-like organisms (RLOs) that are either spherical or coccoid, with variable size, ranging from 0.5 similar to 1.5 mum in diameter, and enclosed within membrane-bound cytoplasmic vacuoles. RLO had a central nucleoid region with some fine filamentous structures and an electron-dense granule. Its cytoplasm contained abundant ribosomal bodies. Occasionally, RLO appeared to be divided by binary fission. RLOs were also observed in the homogenized tissue of infected fish. The results suggested that the death of cultured O. argus was caused by RLO infection.

Optical properties of nanometer silicon prepared by silicon ion implanted into SiO2 layers

The samples of silicon nanocrystals (nc-Si) were prepared by Si ion implanted into SiO2 layers. Photoluminescence spectra were measured at room temperature and their dependence on thermal annealing was investigated. The experimental results show that PL peaks originate from the defects in SiO2 layers caused by ion implantation when the thermal annealing temperature is lower than 800 C. The PL peak from nc-Si was observed when the thermal annealing temperature was higher than 900 C, and PL intensity reached its maximum at the thermal annealing temperature of 1100 C. As the annealing temperature increases the red shift of PL peak from nc-Si shows the quantum size effect. The characterized Raman scattering peak of nc-Si was observed at the right angle scattering configuration for the first time. It provides further support for the PL measurements.

Characterization of GaSb substrate wafers for MOCVD III-V antimonides

The qualities of GaSb substrates commonly used for the preparation of III-V antimonide epilayers were studied before and after growing GaInAsSb multi-layers by MOCVD using PL, FTIR and DCXD together with the electrical properties and EPD value. The correlation between the substrate qualities and epilayer properties was briefly discussed. The good property epilayers of GaInAsSb and, then, the high preformance of 2.3 um photodetectors were achieved only using the good quality GaSb wafers as the substrates.
